“His body had completely given up and we believe that if we hadn’t rescued him right when we did, he likely wouldn’t have survived another day,” the animal welfare group based in India writes.

“It was easy to imagine him completely giving up on life, but this old boy wasn’t ready to say goodbye.” Instead, Sahib made an amazing recovery.
